Lucic blocked Cam Atkinson's shot just inside the blue line and the puck took a big bounce toward the Columbus end with nobody between Lucic and Blue Jackets goalie Sergei Bobvrosky. Lucic corralled the puck and poked a shot between Bobvrosky's pads.

Boston goalie Chad Johnson stopped 32 shots playing for just the third time this season with starter Tuukka Rask getting a night off.

Kings 3, Islanders 2: Tyler Toffoli deflected in the winning goal with 1:27 left for Los Angeles, which scored three times in the third period. Tanner Pearson had tied it at 2 with 7:45 left with a power-play goal in his first NHL regular-season game. Slava Voynov started the turnaround for the Kings at 5:34 of the third. Aaron Ness gave the Islanders a 2-0 lead in the second period with his first NHL goal after Casey Cizikas put New York in front with his first of the season.

Lightning 5, Ducks 1: Valtteri Filppula had two goals and an assist and goalie Ben Bishop won his 13th game this season. Martin St. Louis added a goal and two assists. Alex Killorn and Victor Hedman had the other Tampa Bay goals.

Blues 7, Avalanche 3: Alexander Steen scored his league-leading 15th and 16th goals and the St. Louis power play woke up with three goals.
